@TSNBobMcKenzie: CHI makes it official - Andrew Brunette signs with the Hawks.

 

NOW THAT ONE I LIKE

 

My boy Steve Sullivan inks a one year deal with the Pens.

Cole to the Habs 4 yrs - 18 mil. Wow....

Even happier about the Brunette choice now

Dowell to dallas 800k.

Dear Lord, more stupid money.

Versteegiak to Chicago South, aka the Panthers, for a 2nd & 3rd rounder

Kris Versteeg acquired by the Panthers. Blackhawks South is now Florida what with the Thrashers headed north!

Well done, sir!

Leino to Buffalo, 6 yrs, $27 million

We look like this so far:

 

Kane-Toews-Smith

Brunette-Sharp-Hossa

Bickell-Bolland-FA (Hopefully Frolik)

Morin-Kruger-Stalberg(if re-signed)-Myers-Maclean-Olesz-Beach

 

Keith-Seabrook

Hammer-Montador

Leddy-O'Donnell

 

Crawford

Salak

 

Looks like a lot of competition for the fourth line. Wonder what other moves Stan has up his sleeve? Hopefully re-sign Frolik soon.

f*** off he's my boy. Haha.

 

Have his authentic red. Ever see that at a game, it's me, say hello.

Smith Toews Kane

Brunette Sharp Hossa

Bickell Bolland Frolik

Olesz Mayers Kruger

 

Boom.

 

Sign Frolik and Campoli now.

FWIW, Tallon is killing is today. Upshall, Fleischmann, Theodore, and Jovo. Wow.

f*** off he's my boy. Haha.

LOL, pretty funny. I'm the guy in the authentic white. No joke.

I really hope we can retain Frolik and Stalberg.

The Panthers are not gonna be bottom dwellers next season thats for sure. I think Fleischmann, if healthy, is the biggest steal out of anybody so far. I love the Brunette signing for the Hawks. He might be a bit old and slow, but he is still the playmaking LW that the Hawks lacked to pair with snipers Sharp and Hossa.

Thankfully, the Blackhawks listened to me.

So for NHL Free Agency 2011, I implore the Blackhawks to search for nothing but role players or to play the kids. Here’s hoping!

 

Pardon my lameness for linking my site, lol.

Sweet mother of god.....

Breaking: #Blackhawks sign forward Daniel Carcillo. Release to follow.

Well, Carcillo is good, but he joins Seabrook in my "most hated Blackhawks" club.

One year, $775K for Carcillo.

Hawks has added some much needed toughness.

Dirty and cowardly is not tough.

Dirty and cowardly is not tough.

And he is kind of untalented.

Eh. I guess you need one of those guys on your team.

They have him, Jamal Mayers (although he's not as frequent with the penalties as Carcillo). John Scott had better be gone, Carcillo had better be a healthy scratch a large part of the time, and another move hopefully is coming. This team has one (maybe two) too many guys that are just big and take penalties up front, and one too few scoring forwards. Not a good sign for a team that wasn't great at scoring 5 on 5 last year and was horrid on the PK. Liked the Brunette move (he's an upgrade over Brouwer IMO), and the Mayers one is fine and I get, but I hope a deal is coming. IMO, Stalberg needs to be out and one more skilled forward needs to be in. I give the team a C for today, very average performance by Bowman. Hopefully Montador and Brunette work out like we hope and expect, they're basically the skill replacements for Campbell and Brouwer as of now. If that happens, Mayers is Scott's replacement as the big forward who fights, and Carcillo is a healthy scratch most of the time, it's fine. Although, I still think the team is one scoring forward short.
